Aug 7, 2009 Pours a golden color with a big fluffy white head. Good retention produces gobs of lacing. This is a little sweet and citrusy tasting with notes of herbs, grains, grass and light hops. Light and refreshing but still with good flavor. Nothing spectacular but a nice summer beer.

Aug 4, 2009 12 oz. bottle served in shaker- poured a transparent water with heavy usage of yellow food coloring, medium carbonation that was lazy. Huge and lasting head that laced, very impressive for a wheatie. Aroma of golden rods, young wheat, and unfortunatly a little corn. Hits the mouth with high-weak body, malt is majority wheat (and that’s before I read the info on the site), middle holds up fine from the usage of the wheat, finish has a small lingering effect, with a small wink of lemon, and is highly enjoyable. Finally found my summer beer, at least it’s not half over here in Texas!

Aug 3, 2009 Much lighter than most beers I prefer, but I didn’t think this was bad for a warm summer day. Rather smooth and refreshing.

Jul 31, 2009 Bottle, bought @ Cornelius, Edinburgh.
Pours clear golden with a fine, frothy, white head. Aroma is grainy and sweet, some wheat peppeing through, light citric. Highish, frothy mouthfeel and carbonation. Sweet flavour, rather wheaty grainy. Seems a bit too much like a wheaty pilsner to me.

Jul 26, 2009 From a bottle into a pilsner glass. Lots of pillowy white head. Golden clear color. Not much aroma at all. Taste was fairly mild, in fact too mild. Nothing to write home about at all. Mouthfeel was fairly non-descript too. Meh, is the best way to describe this beer. It did nothing for me. Too bad, this is the only Anchor beer that’s dissapointed me so far. I’d look elsewhere for a good wheat beer.
Borresteijn (1349), Amstelveen, Netherlands
Jul 25, 2009 355ml Bottle from De Bierkoning. Clear golden colour, frothy white head. Aroma of sweet flowery wheat. Flavour is light sweet, some caramel, wheat, light bitter, bit sticky wheat finish. Light to medium bodied. Low on flavours, not very exciting.
kopher (296), New York, USA
Jul 24, 2009 clear straw, frothy white head; nice lacing.
sticky sweet malt aroma, a bit floral and fairly caramel-y
mild sweet flavor, a hint of skunk, with a bitter, somewhat boring finish.
a bit flat and thin.
